| Core Tip |
The study by Caturano et al focused on high-risk type 2 diabetes patients and found that an hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) level ≤ 7% was associated with a reduced incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events only in the standard care group, with no such association observed in the intensive multifactorial treatment group. Additionally, there was a U-shaped relationship between continuous HbA1c levels and adverse outcomes. The study has limitations, but the results support individualized management and emphasize that comprehensive intervention is superior to solely controlling HbA1c. |
